      Lots of near misses so far. We just have to keep chipping away

        Missing that runout was poor! Poor throw, poor positioning by Blundell, and Smithy is probably right about poor communication.

            Southees test bowling average is now 29.92. 30 is the official cut off between “Very good” and “good” for a fast bowler so he needs to stop right now.

                @MN5 I think Tim has 27 runs to play with - in which time he needs to take a wicket.

                  Fuck me - he's got an inside edge on that and saved by DRS.

                  Reiffel's having a pretty poor test.

                    Looks like we used all our luck on Day one and India are having all theirs now. Ball drops 6 inches short of Ravindra and goes for 4.

                      So that over included two sixes, two LBW reviews and a half-chance at a catch. None of which went our way.

                      It's all happening, Bill!

                          They’re not far behind with plenty of batting still to come.

                          ….and a classic Black Caps “shit the bed” batting performance is always a distinct possibility. Things are pretty even Stevens right now.

                            If Ravindra Jadeja batted at test level like he did at first class level he would be the greatest all rounder of all time.

                              24 hours ago, who would have thought I'd be pleased to see the rain!

                              Looks like quite a bit of showery shit to come today and tomorrow, so maybe we'll be spared defeat.

                                @Chris-B 24 hours ago India were paying $21 and the draw was $3.80 i jumped on both , had feeling India with that powerful battling lineup and the pitch flattening would a whole lot better but at 4.85 runs per over thats been the killer for BCs .

                                    @Steven-Harris Yeah - I had a hunch when Timmy was smacking the best spinners in the world around that batting probably wasn't too difficult.

                                    Regardless, I kind of hoped we'd be able to put together 10 pieces of good cricket to pick up the necessary wickets.

                                    Realistically, the pitch shouldn't deteriorate so much that we can't bat two sessions to save the game, but I wouldn't mind having your tickets!

                                    Nice to see you back by the way. Hope the health concerns are over.

                                        @Steven-Harris I think Stargazer pulled the pin after RWC.
